And of course the activist media is irate the real story is being covered by some.
The Whistleblower May Not Be A Whistleblower At All
Despite the paucity of facts, some reasonable observations and conclusions can be drawn:
1. It appears that an American spy in one of our intelligence agencies may have been spying on our own president. The complaint suggests that this intel agent was secretly listening in on Trump’s conversation with a foreign leader. Was this person officially asked to listen to the conversation or was he or she secretly listening in? We don’t know.
2. This agent, who is an unelected and inferior federal employee in the government hierarchy, apparently believes that it is his/her job to second-guess the motivation behind the words of the elected president, who is the most superior officer in the U.S. government.
3. Article II of the Constitution gives the president sweeping power to conduct foreign affairs, negotiate with leaders of other nations, make demands or offer promises. The Constitution does not grant the power of review, approval or disapproval to spies or other unelected officials in the executive branch.
4. The ICWPA law defines the parameters of an “urgent concern” complaint as an abuse or violation of law “relating to the funding, administration, or operations of an intelligence activity involving classified information, but does not include differences of opinions concerning public policy matters.” The president’s conversation with a foreign leader does not seem to fall under this whistleblower definition.
5. It appears the acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) agrees with this assessment. His agency’s general counsel wrote a letter stating the complaint did not meet the ICWPA definition because it involved conduct “from someone outside the intel community and did not relate to intelligence activity”, according to a report by Fox News. This is why the DNI refused to forward the complaint to congress.
To put this in plain language, a spy who allegedly spied on the president does not have a legitimate whistleblower complaint against that president under the law. The ICWPA is a mechanism to report alleged misconduct by members within the intelligence community, of which the president is not. Yes, the alphabet soup of intel agencies ultimately report to the president, but that does not make Trump a member of that community and subject to its rules of conduct.
So, it turns out that the “whistleblower” may not be a whistleblower at all. But you will not hear that from the mainstream media. They are too busy lighting their own hair on fire.
So I see the Dems have already picked Joe Biden as the guy they’re going to rig the election for. Wasn’t aware Trump was running against Biden in anything at this point.

Another story made it sound like it all generated from someone who didn't even hear the convo. Imagine filing an allegations like THIS based on second or third hand accounts of people that maybe didn't even hear the conversation.
Haha such frauds. And they don't even make their own signs. Just show up, take pics for social media, then go home.
Bet $1000 fuzz bucks that's exactly how all these went too
They are trying everything in their power to get Biden elected next year. I've long known MSM is little more than an advocacy group.CBS campaign reporter Bo Erickson (@BoKnowsNews) is reporting that Biden fries some steaks in Iowa...

You know that's completely fake right? Not even from the correct country, or a climate protest. It's a London park after a weed festival. Climate protesters actually cleaned it up.

The ice age ended bc sabertooth tigers didnt become vegan and wooly mammoths refused to drive electric cars.

Doesnt sound like a doomsday cult at all...
Getting paid to play a game. Most owners worked and built their business. No wonder you suck so bad, you don't know what working is.Obviously professional sports are an example of capitalism for the owners, coaches, and players.
I’m wondering why so many people refer to them as “privileged athletes.”
You don't, you wear jeggings and cootchie shorts.They put on their pants just like we do. You spend time in a thread where working-class individuals bitch and moan about politics 24/7, and their opinions don’t seem to bother you.
Why do athletes’ political/societal opinions offend you so much?
Why do you hate Nick Bosa for being team #MAGA and letting people know about it? I feel like everyone is entitled to their own opinion. If you let their opinion sway yours, that’s a personal issue.
Plus, I don't have a problem with him asking for the leader of that country to look into the dealings of Biden's son. There seems to be some illegal goings on and the president is sworn to protect this nation. Problems is, the left must think what Hunter did was illegal and they are trying to deflect by making it look like Trump is doing some wrong which, he is not.The Whistleblower May Not Be A Whistleblower At All

Serous about the planet or getting attention and free stuff.
Like Hillary and the balloons, fake emotion.
